Treehouse XII was fantastic.

Bart's evil twin.

Lisa's tooth society.

And the GOAT treehouse sketch, Kang and Kodos abducting Bill Clinton and Bob Dole.

XII had the terrible Harry Potter parody

I liked Treehouse II quite a bit. "Monkey's Paw" was a favorite when I was young. So was the sequence with Burns taking Homer's brain and putting it in a robot.

Hugo! Steady diet of weekly fish heads.

I also like the time travel bit, and when the billboards (for lack or a better term) come to life, but the quoted Treehouse episode is my favorite.

We must go forward, not backwards. Upward, not forward, and always twirling twirling twirling towards freedom.

I'm sure this has been posted before, but my mate sends it to me from time to time and it cracks me up every single time.

I was interested in starting a Mad Men rewatch. It's on IMDb TV, which is available within Prime Video.

IMDb TV is ****ing weird. It has commercials, which is fine, since it's available for free as a stand-alone service, but even with a show like this that had natural commercial breakpoints, the commercials just start whenever, including if a character is in mid-sentence. That sort of seems too aggravating to want to stick with watching a full series on it.

I don't think I could handle that, especially on a show like that.

(I've never seen it, but I imagine it requires reasonably close attention)

Treehouse of Horrors in season 10 is aggressively bad.

Email to a friend right after the announcement:

“These stupid idiots. If they were going to botch the name, couldn’t they have gone with a morally offensive name that they would be forced to change in 20-30 years?”

Don't know if anyone else uses disney+ for the simpsons but I really wish the "skip intro" button would take you to the start of the touch gag rather than the tv credits.

Also season 2 of the simpsons has been great so far, hoping to polish it off tonight (so await another boring post).

I'm struggling hard to find these mysterious good/great episodes in season 10. This season seems like a full-on freefall after a real-but-acceptable downslope in season 9.

It will never not be hilarious that TradeOC once showed up, dominated the board with terrible posting, and that most of us immediately concluded (incorrectly, it seems, and without evidence) that it was Judy attempting a gimmick account despite the fact that it made no coherent sense what the gimmick of it was even supposed to be.

I can't imagine how bad it must be if you think Homer's Enemy is epic television.

Season 2
Bart gets an F
Simpson and Delilah
Dancin' Homer
Dead Putting Society
One Fish, Two Fish, Blowfish, Blue Fish
Principal Charming
Bart's dog Gets An F
Old Money
Lisa's Substitute

They were all very good, all the rest were at least enjoyable apart from Treehouse of horrors which was aggressively bad.
